Being Saturday I went to garage sales and estate sales. Found two Catholic rosaries at this one estate sale. The relatives of this persons estate sale had these two rosaries priced at a dollar each. I am not a Catholic but considering the age of the item and real turquoise jewelry one dollar seemed more then fair. This is not a synthetic chinese turquoise and pot metal but very nice heavy stones strung on wire with locking screw clasp and looks like silver with gold plated areas. Have no clue of the value of this huge heavy necklace, but the family of the estate did not feel it was worth keeping? One dollar
